Thanks very much Sharon.......it did the trick!!

Leave out the quote marks if you're using Run

May want to try Windows key +E

To create a shortcut for this, locate the shortcut for Explorer in your
Start Menu (it's way the heck under Accessories). Copy it to your desktop.
Right click and select Properties.

Change the target line to:
%SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /e,
to open with the focus on My Computer

Tag on a drive letter if you want Explorer to open with the focus on a
particular drive. Example to open Explorer with C: selected:
%SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /e,c:

I made a short cut using this command line perameter:

C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE /n,/e,C:\

If you have a partitioned hard drive and want it to open to one of the other
drives, change the C to whatever drive you want.

I assume you want to open at your C: drive with all the folders open under
it? If so, go to your C: drive icon in Explorer, right click it, choose
Copy. Right click an open space on your Desktop and choose Paste Shortcut.
